Laphroaig is undoubtedly the best known single malt whisky distillery on Islay, the Scottish island known for its peated, smoky whiskies. The Laphroaig Distillery was founded in 1815. Over the years, Laphroaig has released many distillery bottlings, and many independent Laphroaig bottles have also been released. Some bottlings received very high ratings.
Laphroaig is one of the few distilleries that still has its own malting floor. The malt is dried over a fire there, fired with peat from their own peat fields. Nowadays, this home-made malt only accounts for 10% of all malt used by Laphroaig.
For many, Laphroaig whisky is the first introduction to 'smoky' single malt whisky.
